Polygon and star shapes in Figma - Cell-by-Cell Formula Trace

Sample Data

This data represents parameters for creating polygon and star shapes in Figma: number of sides, inner radius percentage for stars, and shape type.

Cell	Value
A1	Number of Sides
A2	5
B1	Star Inner Radius (%)
B2	50
C1	Shape Type
C2	Star

Formula Trace

IF(C2 = "Star", POLYGON_SIDES = A2 * 2, POLYGON_SIDES = A2)

Step 1: C2 = "Star"

Step 2: POLYGON_SIDES = A2 * 2

Step 3: Inner Radius = B2%

Cell Reference Map

    A       B       C
1 | Number | Star   | Shape
  | of     | Inner  | Type 
  | Sides  | Radius |      
2 |   5    |  50    | Star 

References:
- A2 for number of sides
- B2 for star inner radius
- C2 for shape type

Cells A2, B2, and C2 provide the input values for the formula to determine polygon sides and star inner radius.

Result

    A       B       C       D
1 | Number | Star   | Shape | Polygon
  | of     | Inner  | Type  | Sides 
  | Sides  | Radius |       |       
2 |   5    |  50    | Star  |  10   

D2 shows the calculated polygon sides for the star shape.

The final result shows that for a star with 5 points, the polygon sides count is 10, which is double the number of points.

Sheet Trace Quiz - 3 Questions

What is the number of polygon sides for a star with 5 points?

A 10

B 5

C 7

D 15

Key Result

For star shapes, polygon sides = number of points * 2; for polygons, polygon sides = number of sides.
